Sean, you are not the first to have suggested a move from Harpenden. A few years ago the hall was getting severely overcrowded and we were contemplating a move to a bigger venue. Then the numbers dropped a little and the idea was dropped. The parking isn't that bad. I have arrived at all sorts of times over the years, from very early when I was helping to set up, to very late when I couldn't be bothered. I never had to park too far away. There's quite a bit of parking within a few hundred yards of the hall but it's scattered. I agree it can be a bit of a scrum if you're a stall holder with a lot to unload. There are also 1 or 2 dealers who shall be nameless who rather take the mick by parking right outside the front door in an area that would otherwise be most useful for unloading.
